Chien-Pao 043/193 Dusk Ball (JP)

This is Chien-Pao, card 043/193 from the Japanese Mega Dream EX set, in its Dusk Ball variant. Chien-Pao is one of the Treasures of Ruin introduced in the Paldea region, and its cool, fox like design has made it a popular subject for collectors. As a Japanese print, it carries the artwork and text as released for the set.

This is the Dusk Ball version, part of the Poke Ball pattern series where the card background is filled with a repeating ball motif in place of the standard art. These pattern cards are made for collectors and have become a favourite chase within the set, with the Dusk Ball design being one of the more striking finishes in the line.

For anyone who collects Chien-Pao, enjoys the Treasures of Ruin, or chases the Poke Ball pattern cards from Mega Dream EX, the Dusk Ball Chien-Pao is a card worth tracking down.
